Selected by the New York Giants in the seventh round of the 1992 NFL draft out of Montana State University, Corey Widmer slowly worked his way into the starting lineup over his first few seasons in New York, wearing jersey number 90.

In his third season with the Giants, the big linebacker started in five of the team's 16 regular season games. In doing so, he earned a sack and 22 tackles.

It was two seasons later, in 1996, that Widmer became a full-time starter in the Giants' defensive backfield. He picked off two passes, recovered a fumble, had a sack, made 68 tackles and assisted on 35 more.

Widmer would produce in a similar fashion over the next few seasons, before winding up his career as a New York Giant following the 1999 season.
